MOANA TOP – 15 Sizes (EU 30–58)

Description

The MOANA TOP is an elegant oversized women's top sewing pattern designed to combine comfort, ease, and modern style. Its relaxed silhouette provides generous freedom of movement while maintaining a feminine and sophisticated appearance.

The design features a flattering boat neckline that beautifully highlights the shoulders, combined with dropped shoulders for a relaxed and contemporary silhouette. The wide sleeves add movement and a touch of elegance, creating a distinctive yet easy-to-wear garment.

The MOANA TOP is a versatile design that can be worn for both casual everyday outfits and more polished occasions. Its oversized proportions make it particularly comfortable to wear, while the clean construction allows the style to adapt beautifully to different fabrics.

The pattern can be sewn in jersey, cotton, or crepe, depending on the desired look and season. Jersey offers a comfortable and fluid interpretation, while cotton or crepe can create a different silhouette and overall appearance.

With its boat neckline, dropped shoulders, and wide sleeves, MOANA is a rewarding sewing project for beginner sewists looking to create a stylish oversized top with a professional finish.

Style Tips

Sew the MOANA TOP in jersey for a comfortable and relaxed everyday version, or choose cotton or crepe for a different look and drape.

The boat neckline beautifully highlights the shoulders and gives the top a feminine, sophisticated character, while the dropped shoulders and wide sleeves create the signature relaxed silhouette.

Pair MOANA with jeans, tailored trousers, wide-leg pants, shorts, skirts, or layered outfits. Its oversized proportions make it easy to style with both casual and more polished pieces.

For a more contemporary look, wear the top with high-waisted bottoms to balance its relaxed volume. For a softer, effortless outfit, combine it with relaxed trousers or denim.
